My favorite part comes at the end of the post:
| Quote | | In both cases, we're talking about strong selection pressure causing a couple changes (or even just one change) in the amino acid sequence of structural proteins. No new functions or structures are evolving and all we've seen is the loss of the ability of a toxin to bind to its target -- a protein involved in sodium channels. This is similar to the breaking down of a function -- losing the ability to bind through a mutation. Interesting and important research for sure, but if we're trying to showcase ""just what is the evidence" for the grander claims of Darwinian evolution, this will not suffice. |
So, according to Luskin gaining tetrodotoxin resistance is a loss of functions? WTF? |
Sure, ask any IDiot: It lost the ability to not resist tetrodotoxin.
